Hey noglider. It's all pretty much flat, BUT I can climb like a goat on/off road.
Thanks. The bags are made for goggles. The front rack is made from Nashbar. Had to wait like 3 months before I got it (i.e. back ordered).

My CC got a bit of a makeover with some true Fatties (which Fit Fine, thankyouverymuch) in the form of Vee Rubber V12 29x1.95 (fyi 1.95"~50mm, but when mounted it's more like 45mm), so here's a new pic (yes, that front tire is flat). Originally, the bike was named by my wife "Blimey" because of the blue+lime color scheme. But with these new clown shoes, I have rechristened it according to my very favorite name from the Utah Baby Namer: behold BEEFEA!

Yup, Elephant. Run by Glen Copus in Spokane, WA. Couplers, cables routed up top, and he does the wishbone seatstays on all his cross bikes. Rack mounts are clever integrated into the top of the seatstays too. Only had it a few months, but I really love this bike. Been on a few trips already as well. 21lb built up as shown.

I can't put my finger on what makes this bike look so badass. Is it the decals? What is it?

and i agree it's a hot bike - i think the shape of the bike is very appealing - traditional road bike look, not giant oversized, and the color scheme is mega. the bright green with the white decals is very eye catching. to be honest i never noticed it had a black fork until someone pointed it out :lol
it's not an overbearing hot road bike, which is nice to see these days.
